Taeyeon's POV

I went straight home after me and Tiffany have conversation, I'm really hurt with what happened. Now, I'm in my room wearing my pajamas in the afternoon. I was lying on my bed and I feel like sick.

This is the first time that I will skip my classes and I know there's a lot of first times will be on the go. I know, I'm sorta selfish when I said that I can't understand her but yeah I don't want to. A promise still a promise, don't make promises if you will not intend to keep it.

Of course it's a big deal! I'm not mad at Tiffany but I'm mad at what she did and I don't know if I can still trust her now. If she can just easily break her promise because of some circumstances then it'll be the same with her other promises.

What if she will promise to love me then another problem occurred? Is she going to break her promise because of that? I smacked my head few times because I know I'm being exaggerated but I just can't control it... To think too much of the possibilities for our future together.

Well... I want us to be together. I want her mine that's why I'm being possessive. I want her to get out of the agreement with Cheol Woo. I'm jealous because she chose him over me. Yes, just a week but *sighed* but it doesn't matter. My point here is... her promise. I wish that she didn't promise it to me. Aisshhh... I will just take a nap and forget this for awhile. I patted my cheeks and closed my eyes.

Then I crawled on the bed, turning around and kicking my feet on air to release my irritation. What a kid? Well I am.

"Let me sleep you dumb head!" I said to myself. Then I covered my whole body with the comforter.

It feels better though.

Taeyeon?

Now...

SLEEP. -_-

*****

Evening.

I woke up as I slowly opened my eyes, yawned and stretched my whole body. I feel much better. It's already dark around my room, thanks to the street lights that scattered in my room through the window. 

I took my phone on the nightstand beside my bed and looked what time it was, 8:15 pm. So I slept not just a nap. There were 28 missed calls and 10 Texts from guess who? Of course, Tiffany. I just closed the notification I don't want to talk to her because I'm still mad at what she did.

I dragged my feet from the bed and walked towards the door then switched the lights on. I narrowed my eyes to adjust on the brightness of my surroundings. I held the door knob but I didn't twisted it yet, I thought maybe Tiffany was home by now. How will I face her? Should I talk to her?

Then I twisted the knob and opened the door, it's unexpected Tiffany was in front of my door sitting on the floor. Sadness clouded her features, she looked dejected. I don't want to see her like that but remembering what she did, I still have my pride but I know it won't last long. 

Tiffany looked up to me then she quickly stood up "Tae I'm so worried, you skipped the afternoon classes! Are you just in your room the rest of the day?"

I stepped back and I was about to close the door but she stopped it with her hand "Tae, please... I'm sorry. It's just a week and it'll be quick. This is the last time that I will break my promise, I swear believe me."

"I said don't talk to me. Believe you? How can I if you once broke your promise?" I genuinely asked.

"Don't be so hard on me Tae, and I have my reason for that-"

"Yes, he's your friend. He's more important right?" I huffed.

"No! Of course not! I just don't want him to be depressed because of the break up." Tiffany reasoned out, she knows that the guy likes her.

"So it's okay to you that I am the one who will be hurt?" I got her point but I want to be hard for now.

"I'm sorry, I really am. I thought you will understand it cuz I know you're considerate and open-minded person than him. I know, it's my fault and it hurts me more knowing that you're hurt because of my decision." Tiffany's voice cracked and tears were streaming down to her face. It melts my heart and I want to wipe her tears.

I lowered my head and shook it then I banged the door. I locked it and turned around then leaned my back on it. I need more time to think but I can't stand seeing her crying like that.

Tiffany knocked on my door "Please Tae, I'm sorry! Please... Please forgive me." Then I heard her sobbing and sniffing hard, oh gosh, this is hard for me. I wanted to hug and comfort her.

"Tae, I will wait here until you face me again. I want to fix this, I can't bear our situation like this. It's killing me inside." Tiffany stopped knocking but I can still hear her sniffling.

I guess I need to forgive her now, it also hurts me to see and hear her crying. I stiffened and brushed my fingers through my hair. I turned around and held the door knob.

Okay! Whew. I will open this door and hug her. I will apologize for being jealous and inconsiderate. Yeah, that's the right thing to do. Then I let out a sharp breath.

Before I could twist the knob, there's sudden power outage! Blackout! It was so dark even outside, I can see it through window. In reflex, I ran over the closet and opened it. I heard Tiffany was screaming and calling my name outside. She also knocked the door very loud. I panicked, then started to rummage in the closet. 

Gosh, where it is? I just put it here! Come on! Where? Ohhh! Here! Yes! I got it! The fluorescent flashlights! I turned it on and it brought very bright light to my room.

I bought these flashlights for Tiffany in case of situation like this. I'm so brilliant right? I know she will love me more, kekeke~ dork?

"Taeyeon please open the door! I need you please! It's so dark in here! I'm so scared!" Oh! So I ran towards the door and opened it.

The moment I opened it, Tiffany ran to me and hugged me tight.

"I'm so scared Tae" Tiffany said with her trembling voice while she shuddered.

I hushed "Don't worry baby, I'm here... I also have lights for ya." I raised my hand holding the fluorescent flashlight, Tiffany glanced and smiled then she buried her face into my crook. It tickles and it made me giggle.

"I thought you will not open the door" She muttered while sniffing quietly. Nah, I'm not that heartless I know you have a phobia.

"I'm still mad but it doesn't mean that I will stop caring for you." You're important more than my pride.

"You're still mad?" Tiffany asked weakly.

I sighed "Well, I realized just now... It's nonsense being mad. It will just hurt you and me so I think we're good now." I can feel her hug became tighter and she smiled.

"Thank you Tae, I will not promise this time but I will not disappoint you again." Tiffany pulled away to face me "I love you"

I can't hide it and to smile, a sincere smile "I love you too Pani, next week you'll be officially mine." I held her cheeks and kissed her on forehead.

"I'm already yours Tae, you don't have to worry and you're mine. Just mine Tae, no sharing." Tiffany's eyes blazed with full of affection and possessiveness. I like it.

I nodded "Okay... Come to my bed, you looked tired." I walked towards my bed holding her hand as she followed.

We laid ourselves in my bed then she hugged me sideways and I did the same, her face on my chest. My heart was pounding, I like the feeling though. I can smell Tiffany, familiar scent when we're stuck in the library.

I called the guards of the village and they informed me that the electric cable wire was broken near at the main gate but they assured us that it was already being fix by now.

"TaeTae..." Tiffany called me.

"Hmm?"

"Where did you get the flashlights?" She asked.

"Ah... I bought it for you so that you'll not be scared anymore. It's rechargeable and it'll last for 8 hours. I bought five flashlights actually so we have 4 extras and alternative for certain." I want to make sure that Tiffany will be fine in this kind of situation. Girl scout me? 

"Sweet, you did this for me? This flashlight is so bright." Tiffany glanced at me and gave a peck on lips then she pushed her face into the crook of my neck again.

"Yes. And I'm planning to put standby generator here in my house. Maybe tomorrow I will buy." I grinned.

Tiffany looked up at me with her 'questioning look'.

"So we can use it if this situation occur again... We can still have electricity. Is it good? Do you like the idea?" I cheerfully said.

"Of course! You're so sweet Tae!" Tiffany hugged me tight but suddenly she became sad. Wae kurae?

"What's wrong Pani?"

"I can't pay you for all what you've done to me. I don't want to be titled gold digger when we announce our relationship." Tiffany apprehensively said. Whoa, so she's not afraid to announce our relationship to others huh? She's brave.

"Tae, don't do it. I don't want you to spend money for me. We can be like this when this happen again, just cuddling... I'm comfortable and I feel safe." Tiffany said trying to convince me yeah, it's effective. I'm convinced to buy generator and treat her like my queen. She deserves it.

"Hmm... I'll think about it?" But I already have my decision, I will buy it for her. Money is just nothing to me, I have a lot of it. And as I said, she's important more than anything else in this world. I slyly smiled but it's not my intention then she caught me.

"Ya, why are you smiling like that?" Tiffany puffed her cheeks then pouted "Are you hiding something?" She scrutinized my face looking for some hints but I make poker face trying hard not to laugh.

"What?" I flinty asked.

"No kiss for a week then" Tiffany continued to pout.

I poked the tip of her nose "Okay" Then I chuckled.

Tiffany raised her eyebrows then it knitted while her nose crinkled, kekeke~ she's so cute to tease so I kissed her for a moment.

"Ya, I said no kiss! And why it's just okay to you huh? Don't you want to kiss me?" Tiffany bit her lower lip, she's so irresistible that's why I gave her a peck on lips again.

Tiffany's face became bright then she leaned forward and crashed her lips on mine. At first, it was simple and no movements then she started to eat my lips literally so in an instant... I did respond. As we're kissing torridly, my mind shutdown. It went blank as my heart beats faster and I can feel Tiffany's warmth. She held the back of my head and pulled me closer to her so she deepened our kiss.

This was so intense, it gave tingles through my body as I feel butterflies in my stomach. This kiss was something that I can't resist, her kiss dazzled me, it overwhelmed me because she's really impressive how she made me like this. With just one kiss of her, I can't control myself now.

Therefore, I started breathing hard. I never thought kissing can really make us gasp for air but still, we crave for it as I still want to continue it. I can feel Tiffany was struggling with her breathe so I broke the kiss immediately. We're both panting as she stared at me and  it's almost like we're speaking through our eyes. This moment of total admiration,  it's special and exhilarating.

"It's incredible" I whispered. Tiffany nodded and she leaned to kiss me again but before it could happen, the lights were back! Maybe they already fixed the broken electric wire because they don't want this village to be angry. Yep, people here are all powerful and well-known in the country.

"Time's up" I said and turned of the flashlight "Go back to your room, there's electricity now. It's not dark you know." I grinned.

Tiffany hugged me and buried her face to my chest "I don't want to. What if there's blackout again? Just lemme stay here." She whined.

"You can take the flashlights if you want" I was just acting to persuade her, I'm just teasing her to show my love for her. ^_^

"Wae? You don't want me here?" Tiffany grumbled "Fine!" She pulled herself up but I embraced her quickly and she fell on me.

I snickered "You're so cute to tease... you can stay here whenever you want, I like you being here with me."

"Really whenever I want? What if I want to stay here every night? Will you still allow me?" Tiffany blushed in her own questions. 

I nodded nonchalantly "Sure, the favor is in me anyway cuz I can cuddle you all night." Then I waggled my eyebrows.

Tiffany gave me eye smile, she's really beautiful and I was dazed by it. "Okay I will sleep here every night. And just cuddle? No kiss huh?" Now she's trying to tease me, I know.

"Hmm..." I'm pretending to think as I rubbed my chin.

Tiffany's face became stern, she's really easy to provoke.

"Can I just kiss you whenever I want?" Just to make it up to her. Huh! Why am I being so cocky?

Then Tiffany smirked and her eyes were full of bliss as she gazed at me "Am I allow to kiss you anytime?" I asked again.

Tiffany frowned "Hmm? What if other people see us kissing at school? They will think I'm cheating" I rolled my eyes, I forgot, she has her fake relationship with Cheol Woo.

"....." I'm sulking now.

Tiffany chortled and pecked me on lips "I'm just kidding... but at least kiss me when nobody's around. I still have a week with Cheol Woo, just a week. Then you can kiss me whenever you want and I can do the same." 

My mouth curved into a smile "Fair and square" I commented.

"So may I kiss you now?" Tiffany asked seductively.

"Don't ask, just do it Pani" Then she leaned forward to me and captured my lips, fiercely.

I like her being dominant in this kind of situation. It makes me love her more.

We kissed for almost an hour, actually, we could kiss all night but I don't want to exhaust her. I know she's already tired from school so I just prepared dinner for her.

After we ate dinner, we slept together in my room and cuddled the whole night till morning. It feels so great knowing that she's in my arms.

Morning at school.

I was sitting in our room for our first subject, Tiffany and I went to school together. We're not hiding our closeness to everyone and most of them were still shocked about it though.

I was in my usual spot at the back of Yoona's seat and I kept glancing at Tiffany. I always grin because every time I look at her, she's looking at me too and sometimes she winked. What a naughty girl she was. 😊

Then someone approached me, I didn't notice her at my side. It was Bora, she looked shy as her head down looking at her shoes. Waaah, she's cute. I never see her like this before.

"E-Erika... Umm. C-can I ask yo-you a favor?"  Bora stuttered, omo! She's nervous? Where's the over-confident one?

"Just Taeyeon, you can call me Taeyeon. We're friends right? And what's your favor?" Then I smiled.

"Ah, T-Taeyeon... Um... Can you help me with my studies? I mean, can you tutor me?" Bora looked tense as she gulped. Really? She want to study? I'm willing to pay her tuition fees if she lose her scholarship but it'll be good for her if she just study and maintain her grades.

"Sure no problem..." I answered casually.

Bora bowed to me "Thank you so much!"

"Hey, you don't have do that!" I waved my hands at her as I disapproved.

"But... I can't pay you for that. What do you want in return? I will do every-"

I cut her off "You don't need to do anything, I'm willing to help you. Besides, it will also help me to review. We're friends, don't treat me like a superior." I held her wrist and caressed it. I glanced at Tiffany, she's looking at us.

Bora hugged me "Thank you so much Taeyeon! Thank you!"

"Nah, it's just nothing" I patted her back.

"It means everything to me" Then she pulled back and bowed to me.

"I said don't do that, I'm not that old." I pouted.

Bora smiled to me and giggled, she's really cute! "You're like a kid, you're so cute Taeyeon" She said then her cheeks turned pink.

"Cute???" I asked in disbelief and Bora nodded then she walked happily back to her seat.

Tiffany was deadpanned looking at me so I smiled to her. She did the same and turned her gaze in front, Prof. Lee was already there. Wait, with what she did was a forced smile. I cocked my brow and was thinking why she did that.

Yoona looked over her shoulder "Bora really changed as well as Tiffany and Seo. I like 'em all." She stated.

I nodded "Likewise. They are really cool. I'm happy to be their friend."

"This is the start for changes... Big changes." Yoona winked at me then I gave her a big smile. She turned her head around and pay attention to Miss Lee.

Yes, change is coming. And it's for the better I know.
